My second brief conversation with with the Ghost of Louisiana “Kingfish” Huey Long

Me: “So –”

Long: “—Don’t look at me.  FEMA is the Devil!  Michael Brown, he’s who you want.  He is a witch!  A witch!  Burn him…!”*

****

update:  “BURN HIM…!”*

    My little brother got upset as a child when he got old enough to understand the Santa Claus myth and realized we didn’t have a chimney.  He fretted and worried because my Dad wouldn’t build a chimney for Santa to come down and bring his presents.  Money was a little short, and his wish list was a little long, so he didn’t get everything he wanted.  He threw a fit and was convinced it was because we didn’t have a chimney…

    and the fact he didn’t get everything he wanted proved it.

    Thanks, John Goodman, for making me think of Muntz from Barton Fink whenever I think of Long.

    Oh, thanks for updating me into a toxic comments zone, Jeff. I probably need a tetanus booster now…

    Has anybody verified that second story about the bodies in the freezer?  I was looking at a blog earlier, sorry can’t remember which, that couldn’t find those names listed in any National Guard registry.

    This new learning amazes me, Senator Pelosi. Explain again how sheep’s bladders may be employed to prevent earthquakes.

    When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up. And that’s what you’re going to get, Lad, the strongest castle in all of England.

    B Moe – Mikel Brooks

    Guess what’s the number one return for a google search of “mikel Brooks Arkansas”?  Link is to an article is about a guy named Mikel Brooks and is in the Arkansas National Guard.

    SW: Maybe it’s the guy.

    I would note however, that the article says he’s stationed in Egypt.

    They sent some folks home for the party in NO, though….

    um, sarahw, there are more reliable ways to look up if someone is in the military, but you have to be in the military to do it.

    Did you look at the source?

    I’m pretty sure there’s a Mikel Brooks in the Arkansas Guard. 

    Whether it’s THE Brooks I have no clue.
